“In a word...Outstanding. Best vacation ever! We, 3 of us, spent 6 days diving 3 to 5 dives per day. The dive master, Silvan, was awesome! If there was only one sea horse in the ocean, he would find it! We were with a 12 year old diver. Silvan quickly judged her level of experience and tailored our dives appropriately. There are 146 mapped dive spots around all of Roatan. Two dive spots you must go is Mary's Place and Calvin's Crack. What amazed me was that every spot had its own ecosystem with its own marine life. 50 meters one way or the other and we were seeing completely different fish....Crazy! They keep very good records of your dives for about 10 years! All of the dive shop staff were great. Anything we needed, they got! There was plenty of fresh water everywhere! They had dive equipment rinse tanks at the gazebo and the dive shop, as well as, three outdoor shower heads for rinsing off. There was even an influx of 45 divers toward the end of our trip. The dive shop managed to outfit all of them as they did not travel with any gear. Holy cow!
The hotel was fantastic. Being able to eat food prepared with native fruits/veggies was great. There was a new dessert every day. I ate way too much because I had to try a little of everything every meal. It was all great! All of the staff were very happy all of the time. I never saw one in a bad mood and was always treated very well. Kenia and Henry, the servers at the beverage bar were great! We must have gotten a hundred glasses of fruit punch and each time they were more than happy to provide it. As divers, we took wet dripping gear to our room every day. Each time they would mop up the water right away and not complain. I felt a little bad about it but they were on top of it and always happy.
Our rooms were pretty nice as well. The A/C worked greeeeeat! There were little island flowers on the tables and sinks when we arrived…nice touch! We had towels folded like a peacock in the bathroom. Towels….they were all large beach towels…awesome! Our beds were turned daily and the maid mopped our floor every day. Again, feel bad…we made a water mess every morning preparing for our dives. But, every day, we had a nicely prepared room when we returned. There was a TV in the room but I have no idea if it even worked. We were out all of the time! There was a small refrigerator as well and digital safe. Did not need the safe. I had stuff everywhere to include expensive electronics and nothing was ever messed with. Unless it was on the bed, they were never even touched. Trustworthy staff! The beds were very firm. If you need an extra bed in the room or a less firm mattress, just ask. They got us an extra very quickly.
Ivan, the Manager was fantastic. He was around every morning and evening ensuring everything was ok. Get the all-inclusive deal. If you don't, you’re crazy. It was very affordable. Other than a dive hose, shirt, laundry service, and tips, I spent $0 while on then trip! Tips are not mandatory, asked for, or expected but when they treat you like royalty, how can you not! I took an extra $100 for tips but that's just me!
Apr-Nov is their slower season. That is the time to go to avoid the crowds and really enjoy yourself! There is absolutely nothing like having a dive master and resort almost to yourself. Enjoy it if you get it while you got it. Roatan is a popular spot.
Make sure you create a good packing list: sunscreen, lotion, bug spray, shampoos, conditioners, extra dive hoses, O-rings, tools, etc. Nothing will aggravate you more than needing to take time and money from your wonderful vacation to get what you should have brought.
P.s. There are 3 monkeys that love to play!” (Nils_David_S)

after having spent a week at this resort I have mixed feelings about my vacation there. The rooms were nice, recently remodeled. The beach was fantastic, private and water really clean as well as the pool area. Bar was ok, the food was just ok, could use a separate menu for people that want to pay extra for some better...

Booked this tour during a Carnival cruise visit to Roatan, Honduras.
The pick up was orderly and the driver (Orlin ) was very good and knowledgeable of the island. The Resort on the other hand had seen better days. We had trouble getting through the gate. The driver and the security guard argued back and forth for a while and...

This resort was absolutely amazing for snorkeling. The front desk staff in 2014 was absolutley amazing, however when we returned in April 2015 we booked a day trip over to fantasy island because we were staying at Media Luna this year the front desk staff was non existent. The first time we went here in 2014 the front desk staff...

Fantasy Island gets a lot of bad hits, and really is a great resort to dive and just lounge around if it weren't for the sand fleas/flies. The dive shop manager Ria, and Sylvin our dive guide could not have been better. The resort was almost empty, so access to comfy beds on the beach was at it's best...if it...

Just returned from my first visit to this Dive Resort. Let me start off by saying the staff are outstanding! The front desk ladies are an excellent testament to the Honduran people! Friendly, helpful and always with a happy smile...not a plastic smile! The Bartender Kenya was lots of fun and made a very nice rum punch! The other Bartender...

Very few fish in private beach area. Reef area beautiful coral and fish. Visibility poor, but had rained alot recently. Current was fairly strong. . Need to ride the current and not fight the waves. Shipwreck not visible the day we went and was 30 feet down.

When I was younger I would stop every year at Fantasy Island Resort on Roatan when I went home to Costa Rica.Back then it was the nicest resort on the Island.
So when it was time to take my 11 year old daughter to Roatan for her first open water dive Fantasy Island Resort was my first choice. But as...

We sailed into Honduras and had no experience here so had little to compare this place to. The Dock Manager (Willy, who we think is no longer there) was very helpful, but clearly the Marina is on the bottom of the resorts priority list. Practically ignored from the time we arrived, we were repeatedly made to feel like second class...
